In the book of Genesis, we find a powerful story about a man named Abraham. He and his wife, Sarah, faced an impossible situation. They were given a tremendous promise by God, involving the future birth of a son, but there was no way in the natural for it to happen. Sarah was barren and not only was she barren, but she was well beyond child-bearing years. In Genesis chapter 18, verse 14 we find that the Lord spoke to Abraham regarding the covenant that He had made with them, and said, “Is anything too hard for the Lord? At the appointed time I will return to you, according to the time of life, and Sarah shall have a son.”
The Lord basically told them… “When the time is right…I will show up and do what I have promised!”
This was (and still is) a prophetic declaration straight from the throne room of Heaven…God says, “I AM GOING TO SHOW UP AND DO WHAT I HAVE PROMISED!” What is the implication of this declaration? It means that it’s just a matter of time and divine orchestration until your dream becomes a reality and your prayers are answered!
If you are reading this today, and you have been standing in faith believing for a certain promise to be fulfilled in your life, then I want to encourage you. The hand of God is at work on your behalf, though it may not seem like it right now! The Lord has not forgotten what He promised you! Though circumstances and people may be working against you, and it may seem impossible for your dream to become a reality. Know that nothing is too hard for the Lord! When the time is right, God will fulfill what He has promised to do in your life.
The Lord is able to do the impossible, so don’t allow any difficulty you may be presently experiencing convince you that your situation is hopeless. Rather, be resolute in your faith. Continue to place your trust and confidence in Jesus, and be faithful and obedient where He has placed you. The Lord will honor your obedience! He will reward you for the difficulties that you have experienced in your “waiting season.” He will recompense you with so much more than you ever thought possible. Your answer is going to be so much bigger and greater than you ever imagined. In other words, IT IS GOING TO BE WELL WORTH THE WAIT! So, do not be discouraged or disheartened. The breakthrough or answer that you have been seeking is going to happen, when the timing is right. The Lord is going to come through for you!
